''You know, a mason knows a mason when he speaks to him. And different lodges know by different signs. The Christian does too. There's just something about when you speak to a man, and you feel that gentle sweet spirit, you know he's your brother. There's just something about him.<ref>THE.FAITH.OF.ABRAHAM_ SAN.JOSE.CA FRIDAY_ 59-0424A</ref> | |||
''Now, I ain't saying nothing on Kiwanis now. That's all right. See? Just some people take... 'Cause I--'''I believe that the Masons are all right''', but the Mason Lodge will never take the place of the Church, or the Blood of Jesus Christ. '''All my people are Masons''', and they're all right as a lodge. But it won't take the place of the Church. | |||
''And the trouble of it is, you've got the church, till it's no more than a Masonic lodge, or any other lodge. The church is a house of God where Christ lives and manifests Himself amongst the people. That's right.<ref>BE.NOT.AFRAID.IT.IS.I_ BLOOMINGTON.IL FRIDAY_ 61-0414</ref> | |||

And so, the old Brother Stewart said to me; he said, "I like you, Brother Branham, and I'd like to talk to you," (excuse this expression), but he said, "you're harder to get to than a Turkish harem." | |||
''Someone said to me not long ago, said, "I'm glad the Lord's not that hard to get to." He said... | |||
''Well, I don't mean to be that way; I love people. But I just imagine... I went home and I told my wife, and we set at the table and laughed, how hard it would be to get to a Turkish harem, you know. So--so I hope it isn't quite that difficult, Brother Stewart, if you're still in here. But I sure did think that was a little sense of humor that kinda made us all have a chuckle. | |||
''So I wished I could see everyone. And I love everyone (That is true.); whether they're a friend or foe, it's just the same.<ref>THE.RESTORATION.OF.THE.BRIDE.TREE_ JEFF.IN V-3 N-15 SUNDAY_ 62-0422</ref> | |||
'''''You Masons''', I'll call your attention. You remember the sign of the cross? '''Now, you--you know what I'm talking about.''' Now, notice.
